Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

Feedback: during the COVID-19 epidemic, access to operating theaters was restricted so that anesthetists and nurse anesthetists could reinforce the resuscitation workforce. The MEOPA was used as an alternative to sedation, allowing colonoscopies to be carried out, colon polyps and colorectal cancers to be detected.

This is a prospective longitudinal study to assess the impact of repeat Cologuard testing at 3 years in average risk patients.

Background: Inadequate representation of elderly cancer patients in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) leading to a lack of external validity thereby an uncertainty regarding benefit-risk balance of cancer treatment in elderly, especially chemotherapy. Hypothesis: The eligibility criteria explain only a part of the under-representation of elderly patients in trials. We make the assumptions that 1) Among the eligible, the invitation to participate in a trial and inclusion are inversely related to age, 2) Among the eligible, there are patients, practitioner, or organization factors that would explain the non inclusion of elderly patients. Objectives: 1) To assess, in elderly patients with colorectal cancer, the proportions of patients: eligible at least to one RCT invited to participate included 2) a) Compare proportions among elderly patients to those of the comparator group of "young" subjects (age ≥ 18 and <65 years) (added by amendment n°3 accepted 18/02/2014) b)To identify factors associated with the non-invitation and the non-inclusion in RCT. Material and methods: Study design: A multicentric prospective cohort survey Population: all patients aged 18 years or more (added by amendment n°3 - 02/2014) with a colorectal cancer followed in one of the participating centers. Data collection: At baseline: Patient characteristics (including SOCIO-demographic, oncologic and geriatric data) will be collected. Organization factors (e.g. clinical research team) will be collected. Follow-up: the patient will be followed for potential invitation and inclusion in one RCT. Reasons of non-invitation or non-inclusion will be assessed. Number of subjects needed: 696 (553 elderly patients and 143 "young" patients) Number of centers : 7 (added by amendment n°3 - 02/2014) Ethical aspects: each patient will give his oral informed consent. The International Review Board of Mondor Hospital (CPP Ile-de-France IX) gave its approval in December 2012.

This non-interventional retrospective medical record review study will assess the prevalence of KRAS testing and the impact of the KRAS test result on patterns of Vectibix use in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) treated with Vectibix in selected European countries over 3 rounds. As the optimal use of Vectibix also requires accurate KRAS mutation testing, this study will also assess data from the laboratory that performed the KRAS test. The study will also monitor changes in the pattern of Vectibix treatment between the different rounds of the study.

Despite the characterization of many aetiologic genetic changes. The specific causative factors in the development of sporadic colorectal cancer remain unclear. This study was performed to detect the possible role of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) in developing colorectal carcinoma.

Chromoendoscopy (indigo carmine or acetic acid) and Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) could make accurate evaluation in predicting of invasive depth of colorectal neoplasia. NBI could be the first choice.

Magnification narrow band imaging (NBI) can make accurate evaluation in in predicting of invasive depth of colorectal neoplasia.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about doctor-patient communication about colon cancer screening. This study will also look to see if there are differences in those who get colon cancer screening based on the discussion the doctor had with the patient.

Malnutrition priori a major abdominal surgery is frequent and increases morbidity and mortality. The management of malnutrition has an impact in reducing postoperative complications. However malnutrition is rarely detected and Guidelines infrequently followed. Recovery time and nutritional evaluation in elderly patients are major criteria in their postoperative management. Identifying malnutrition or malnutrition risk is fundamental to its treatment. It is therefore unsurprising that many validated tools for nutrition risk screening and nutrition assessment exist for the clinician to use in assisting with the accurate identification, referral and treatment of patients who are malnourished or at risk of malnutrition. And nutritional management must be adapted and based on this evaluation and evolution of the general status (Guidelines Grade A). A geriatric evaluation based on a screening of preoperative malnutrition should allow a better implementation of the European Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ESPEN) guidelines.

The purpose if this study is to measure the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the Metabiomics Colon Polyp and Colorectal Cancer Assay for the non-invasive detection of colon polyps or colorectal cancer.
